Kirby Buckets, also known as Kirby Buckets Warped for its third season, is an American adventure-comedy TV show. It aired on Disney XD from October 20, 2014, to February 2, 2017. Even though it's a live-action series, it also features cool animated cartoon parts. These animated bits show Kirby's own drawings coming to life! The main actors in the show are Jacob Bertrand, Olivia Stuck, Mekai Curtis, Cade Sutton, and Tiffany Espensen.

What is Kirby Buckets About?

Kirby Buckets has a big dream: he wants to become a famous animator. He looks up to his idol, Mac McCallister. In the show, Kirby's cartoon creations actually interact with him! Just like Nicholas Martin in McGee and Me!, Kirby sees his drawings become real. He and his two best friends, Fish and Eli, go on wild and surprising adventures.

Season 3: Warped Adventures

In the third season, things get really crazy for Kirby. His sister, Dawn, sues him, and he's told he can never draw again! While visiting the principal's office, Kirby finds a small, round device. This device lets him travel to different worlds! Kirby accidentally sends his parents to another dimension. He then brings back their versions from a Mad Max-like universe. Now, Kirby has to find his real parents. But he also has some fun exploring these new worlds along the way.
